A wise man once said "Find a way to get paid to do what you want, and you will never work a day in your life." For me, there's no better occupation than with DARPA, at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds.
I've always had a fascination with military technology, stretching all the way from feudal Japan to modern America.
Plus, military service has been a theme in my family three generations deep. More to follow later.
This sounds very exciting. Thank you for sharing this information with us.
ReplyDeleteVery smart wise man!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI was in the Air Force and i am a handgun freak. I love tactical firearms of all kinds.
ReplyDelete@mentalchaos - back about 6 years ago, a weapons platform was in development (far enough along to be publicly known) that revolutionized projectile technology. Essentially, the designers removed all the moving parts from a typical "gun" and left only the propellant, bullet, and barrel, and replaced the firing pin with an electrode; and instead of one barrel, an array of hundreds in a grid arraingement. The project at the time was dubbed Metal Storm, and test results showed a firing rate in the millions of rounds a minute. The GE M137 minigun was the fastest firing weapon at the time, with a rate of thousands per minute.
ReplyDeleteI dig the post man. I feel the same way about performing music.
ReplyDeleteYour quote in your post "It basically says to work on the details of your life, and your karma will handle the larger concepts - in other words, don't sweat the big stuff" these are great words to live by.
